River Superstitions,
st. Louis Republican

wv A1ouio ANePupiiCaH.-
"Among the peculiar features of
steamboat life on the Mississippi be-
fore the war;" said Col. Dean OF
Hurst's to a Republican reporter re-
Gently, "were the signs and omens in
which every steamboatman had the
most implicit faith. Agray horse on
board the boat made all the hands
and all the passengers who knew any
thing about the superstition, uneasy
to the end of the trip, or until the
equine Jonah had reached it's destina-
ton. never heard OF q disaster with
which a gray horse was connected, but
the belief in their bad luck got started
somewhere. Another superstition,
which was hardly a superstition be-
cause l never saw it fail to come true,
was that, if II steamboat disaster
occurred, two others would follow in
a week or two. We always felt very
anxious when a steamboat was burn
ed, blown up or sunk, as
we would always think, 1T
may be our time next I'd
like for you to notice that and see
how singularlv true it is. Only a
short time ago the Simms went to the
bottom at Memphis. Within two
weeks the Duncan was sunk by an
other boat below CINCINNATI, and the
third steamer-T've forgotten it's
name-was lost stillfarther down. the
Ohio. The deck hands were all Irish
Whose days. and they formed the
Miotbeds OF river superstition. But
the negroes OF to-day are about as
bad. Ii they see a rat jump offa boat
before leaving the wharf they won't
make the trip for any consideration.
! was on tho river q good many years
and a several trips with Mark
Twain, or Sam Clemens, as we knew
him then. He was a good story teller
and a number II good fellow at all
times. But there was nothing sn utty
about his yarns. H. was alwaya re
fined in his language. even when a
young man. 1t used to be our de.
light to get up in the pilot house and
listen to Sans jokes and hear Eb
Hughes play the fiddle. Eb couldn't
play but two tunes-'Glt OFF Dat
Log and Hell on the Wabash'-but
by alternating the two he and Sam
could manage to get up quite an en-
tertaipnfent."

"pon't Marry HIM"

HE is such q tickle, inconstant fellow,
you will never be happy with him. said Es-
theirs friends when they learned OF her en-
gaee,nent to n young man who bore the
reputation OF being n sad tiirt. Esther.
however. knew that her lover had good
qualities, and she was willing tn take the
risk. In nine cases out OF ten 1t would have
proved u mistake; but Esther was an un.
common girl and to every ONES surprise
Fred made n model husband. How was
it? Well. Esther had a cheerful, sunny
temper and n great deal OF tact. Then she
enjoyed perfect health and WAS always SO
sweet, neat and wholesome that Fred found
his home most pleasant, and his own vile
more agreee BILE. than any other being. As
the year passed and he saw other women
OF Esther's age grow sickly, faded and
querulous. he realized more and more that
he had"a jewel Of u wife" Good health was
hall the secret OF Esther's success. She re-
tanned her vitality and good looks, because
she warded off feminine weaknesses n
ailments by the use OF DR.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription.

How Business Methods are Learn

The following is taken from the Farm,
Stock and Home.
A recent visit to, and an examination Of
the c. {. Curtiss Business Colleges. located
in Minneapolis and ST. Paul, revealed the
fact that these institutions were practical
~ two busy cities, doing a large and varied
business with each other in all kinds Of
commodities, and subject to all the con.
ditions and requirements Of trade between
real cities. All this business is transacted
by correspondence and every letter ia re-
CURED to be written gramnlatically and
in proper business form. Ordering goods,
filling orders, collecting accounts through
banks; giving, ~discounting and paying
bank notes, in TACT every possible detail
or necessity which can arise in
business is here provided for. Thesedual col
ieges have one advantage which is pos
sessed by no other single college or chain OF
them, and that is. both ends OF the line
are under the personal supervision OF the
same instructor! The contiguity OF the
two cities makes this possible yet so far as
the merchants in each city are concern.
ed they are as II n thousand miles apart.
To avoid any further enlargement on
this particular feature, we will say that
during Mr.. Curtiss' long experience in and
deep study OF business education he has
ever striven for the highest p~ractieability.
and we can but ieel that he has o at
tanned it. Mr.. Curtiss is too wise to guar
antee to complete a students course in q
given time, but it is safe to say that whom
the student leaves his college it is as q
merchant, banker, or whatever other bust.
ness he may have studied for.
As schools OF penmanship we regard
these as being quite as near perfection rs
possible. The high excellence in this art is
here possessed by instructors who have the
rare faculty 0! impartins their gifts in a
manner both pleasing and effective. Tele-
graphing, shorthand and t~ype-writing arc
made important adjuncts to these excel.
lent schools.
The highest praise which can be given to
these schools is to say that they arcrapid-
ly growing in favor; the attendance is
larger now than ever before at this season.
and after seeing so many more excellent
features than we have time to describe, we
cannot wonder at this evidence Unpopular
ity and succrss. We heartily commend
Mr.. CuTtiss and his methods OF i%nstruc-
ton to our country boys and girls who
want to know more OF the great business
world.
